Wow. So much flavor!!! I had a lot of the plum syrup left over and used it on top of fresh fruit afterwards. Amazing.

Delicious. I was short on plums and made up the difference with cherries. I think any stone fruit will work well. We will definitely serve this again.

Great recipe. I used sour cream ins tread of creme fraiche and it worked fine, though I used higher percentage of marscapone and less cream overall. I didn't add the honey or all the sugar as I don't like things too sweet
The plum glaze was so delicious I used the extra over yoghurt
Though it's several steps its easy and impressed all my guests

Well worth the effort. The plums should be roasted only until the skin begins to break, about 30 minutes. This time will depend on how ripe the plums are. It works better with less ripe plums.

I made this today
but used peaches and
we loved it. I've
long been a fan of a
mascarpone cheese
layer on top of
crust when making
fruit pies;
especially a fresh
strawberry version.
I started the habit
to keep the fruit
juice from making
the crust soggy but
I continue it
because it just
tastes so good!

I'm making this for the third time today. Have served it twice for company - to raves each time. The flavors are a great blend. It takes a bit of time to create, so I always start a day ahead, roasting the plums. Make sure not to over bake them or you will have a messy looking pie - still tasty, however. It's a great pie technique that could probably be repeated with other fruit.

This recipe was a waste of
ingredients. Most of the plums
basically melted when I roasted
them. The liquid turned to a rubber
consistancy when I reduced it. I
ended up roasting peaches to
substitute for the plums as I could
not salvage them. The
mascapone/creme fraiche part of the
pie was just OK but not worth the
effort and cost. Also was a waste of a vanilla bean.
